Famine in East Africa: 5.5 million children in danger

Right now, across East Africa, drought, war and lack of food mean millions of children and their families are facing starvation. More than 880,000 children are severely malnourished and desperately need immediate life-saving food. Without this help, one in five of these children could die.

The scale of the food crisis is staggering for children

When famine is declared, it means four children out of every 10,000 die every day because of a lack of food. We must act now to save as many children’s lives as possible. Without enough food and clean water, children’s lives are in extreme danger – we need your help.Donate now to help.

Drought

Intense sunlight is evaporating all of the remaining water in East Africa. The severe drought is killing the livestock thousands of people rely on to eat and has turned farmland across the area into barren desert.
